GY-01 / Strength Foundations
The first year is not about maximum weight. It is about repeating a small, honest increase often enough that your body has a reason to adapt.
GY-02 / Cardio & Endurance
Zone 2 is not a magic number on a watch. It is the pace where you can still talk in full sentences, and most people can find it without a lab.
